Quote:‏‏ It beckons with promise  with something  bittersweet, something  that could break my heart.   And yet, maybe  it could be mended  too, made gold  and glistening  at the broken places, made fresh  and new by cool waters, made whole  by the small moments, by making  the choice to rise and try again. Heart Kintsugi, by Stacie Eirich

Quote: Picture me now, at forty, and I have not entirely combed through this twisted knot of cognitive dissonance.  Some days I feel beautiful and some days I feel like somebody’s middle-aged mother. Most of the time, however, I feel the wisdom in my bones that it doesn’t fucking matter. When it does matter, I don’t feel ugly, just invisible. My unhelpful friend, Mr. Internalised Objectification says, “That’s what you become as a woman, when you age … invisible, no longer relevant.” My higher-functioning-Germain-Greer-reading-feminist-consciousness disagrees. Then I look outside myself, and see that the world too, cannot seem to agree on this point either. I Could Be Modern Art, by Natalie Hunter

Quote: Decaying leaves change
to tangerine, crumbling
into chunky wool sweaters and bone

I vow this season to knit sweaters
instead of shopping from Shein. ‏ ‎‏‏ Sweater Season, by Reese Bentzinger

Quote: IRIS: The 8:15 is always late on Tuesdays. BARRY:I’m sorry? IRIS: The 8:15. It’s always late on Tuesdays. Something about track maintenance. BARRY: How late? IRIS: Oh, about seven minutes, usually. [Beat] I’ve been taking this train every Tuesday for twelve years. Some things you just come to know. BARRY: Seven minutes. Perfect. Just perfect. IRIS: Those seven minutes… they used to drive Harold crazy, too. Seven Minutes, by Ben Macnair

Field Notes From A Colder Time by opensorceryy Poems About Things That Still Keep Me Awake

This is MY #InsomniaJam2025 submission. I am a bit nervous since, in the true spirit of the game, most of it spilled out of me in about a week, late at night when I couldn't sleep.

But here goes nothing.

The Paradox of Camphor Phantoms  We were visiting old haunts / where we’d left our Tipp-Ex & typo-storied teen years / walking / we felt geography’s ghosts bring up the camphor contours of our former selves / they rattled inside our adult bodies / tangy in texture & glazed / the very veil or varnish on our identities. by Émilie Galindo

“we felt geography’s ghosts bring up the camphor contours of our former selves”
